ClosedTexture Settings
  • These textures are used to define the effect regions on the cheeks. By default, the Right Range drop-down list is set to Left Mirror. (The textures in this section can be edited if you have purchased and installed the SkinGen Plugin.)

    The blush shape on the right cheek is the same but mirrored from the Left Range texture.

    If you want to create a custom blush on the right, set the Right Range drop-down list to Custom Right and load the custom texture to the Right Range channel.

    The blushes on the cheeks can be different.
  • Refer to the Settings in Appearance Editor - Foundation, Contour and Highlight section for more information about the Range usage for the foundation, contour and highlight.
